^ I think the likelier scenario is that one of Seba or Jozy can't play, or needs to be subbed, in November, so the priority is getting Ricketts minutes with both.
I think the scenario where neither Seba or Altidore is on the field is obviously unlikely, but we saw what Vanney would do then - Ricketts and Vasquez.
I am really most worried about Altidore, if he has to play knockout USMNT games in November, I think it's at least 50/50 he isnt 100% when he comes back
